3:47 am

Merk

So where is the other 9 word anyway?

3:48 am

Merk

Oh, the hi that herin was asking help with. Did she ever get the word?

3:48 am

Haz1558

ch9 - extend the little note (ch4/6) with a vowel and a spanish saint

3:48 am

Merk

Is there a good clue for the hi 8 please? As long as I am thinking in terms of long words.

3:49 am

Haz1558

I'm looking for it now, Merk.

3:49 am

Frances

Haz I have only two 9 words hi9/66 and mi9/60!

3:49 am

oggy

3:50 am

Haz1558

hi8 is the singular of the hi9, Merk.

3:50 am

Haz1558

Good morning all, by the way.

3:51 am

Merk

But is there a clue for the hi 8??

3:51 am

Haz1558

Yes, hi8 - male personal pronoun (object) then the ending for st***** (being the place where trains depart from)

3:51 am

Frances

Haz shouldn't that be ch8?

3:52 am

Haz1558

Yes, Frances, you're right. My apologies.

3:53 am

Frances

Thought I was going mad for a minute!

3:53 am

Haz1558

I'm usually accurate with letters, numbers are less reliable.

Merk

3:54 am

Haz1558

You're welcome, Merk.

Merk

anike

Haz1558

Hello lynxxx.

4:04 am

Haz1558

Are you finding quite a few words that have occurred in the past couple of days? Or have the grids merged together in my mind?

4:05 am

lynxxx

no you are right...but I seem to find the same letters repeat for a few days anyway

4:05 am

Frances

Just what I was thinking Haz. Thought it could be something to do with the festive seasons!

4:06 am

Haz1558

That co7 was in two days ago, this time it can be pluralled.

4:09 am

Haz1558

And plural for is7/28

4:10 am

Merk

A British can ... I think I know that, but I can't get to it yet.

4:10 am

Haz1558

It's a metal, Merk

4:10 am

Merk

ty

4:10 am

Haz1558

4:11 am

FranMag

4:11 am

FranMag

4:11 am

Haz1558

FranMag

4:12 am

Haz1558

Yes, thanks Fran.

4:13 am

Merk

No, I'm looking for them now.

4:13 am

Merk

Are they connected to Haz's earlier clues for the is 6 and 7

4:13 am

Merk

clues please for the 8

4:13 am

FranMag

merk, just add a vowel at the end of the is6 for the is7 and then plural for the is8

4:13 am

Haz1558

Merk - just add a vowel to the dress fabric

4:14 am

Merk

You make it look so easy

4:14 am

FranMag

has fmitch been on yet? she'll be disappointed that she's not a word i'm sure.

4:15 am

Haz1558

Fran - I don't think she has been on yet. She hasn't been too well so is maybe resting up.

4:15 am

FranMag

oh, sorry to hear that.

4:16 am

Haz1558

She mentioned having a very heavy cold and anaemia to be confirmed by blood tests. Hopefully she is on the mend.

4:17 am

Haz1558

Hello mrpresident!

4:17 am

mrpresident

what is wrong with fmitch!?? is she ok?

4:18 am

Haz1558

She had a very bad cold just before Christmas and mentioned that she was having blood tests to confirm the doc's suspicions that she was anaemic.

4:19 am

Haz1558

Hopefully she is resting up and getting better. Any attempt at yesterday's grid would have complicated things.....

4:20 am

mrpresident

anaemia isn't the type of thing that fmitch would be comfortable with! hope she is ok

4:21 am

Haz1558

We'll send out the search parties if there isn't a sighting in the next day or two.

4:24 am

8:57 am

Vicuna

She'd be in even more of a sn4/4 if she thought you were implying she isn't a proper noun!

8:57 am

9:03 am

smooth_pappa

good for you kate!

9:03 am

kthdsn

the last link is still the money though, I'm not sure how that's going to work out yet but I'm damned sure that somehow it will

9:05 am

KatieMcG

I am really having problems with the grid today, honestly much more of this and I take refuge in my work!!

9:06 am

Vicuna

Isn't that a little drastic, katie?

9:06 am

Buttonman

guys, i am still working on the first ch 4/4..anyone have it...it precedes the ch** pet?

9:07 am

hurshy

um, is it just me or is this a really hard one

9:07 am

Anniebrook

button, change the last vowel on the ch

9:07 am

Vicuna

cha4/6 - two other vowels (misspelling of Italian goodbye?)

9:07 am

hurshy

button - rhymes with italian hello

9:07 am

KatieMcG

I know vicuna, I've done well so far with regards to slacking but really am going to be forced back to it!

9:07 am

Anniebrook

ch ---state of utter ch***, leave off last letter

9:07 am

Vicuna

katie and I are not finding it easy!

9:07 am

hurshy

hello, goodbye, whatever

9:07 am

Buttonman

HURSHY, i don't know Italian

9:08 am

hurshy

so far i've greyed the left N, the W and the lower H

9:09 am

Vicuna

I've greyed the w, the upper H, and an I. But I'll have to quit soon to pay bills. (Okay, so I'm being a hypocrite, kattie!)

9:10 am

hurshy

lower h changes vowel in word from upper h

9:10 am

Vicuna

Yeah, just got the lower H. thanks!

9:10 am

inge

anyone in the room who knows about dogs and chocolate? I know they are not to have it. Ours apparently ingested some last night, and I am finding several arf-barf spots! Will that take care of it or should I expect more symptoms???

9:10 am

smooth_pappa

hurshy... rhymes with arrivadercci? that's tough to do. ;)

9:10 am

Vicuna

The other two h's are hi8 and hi9, an ancient Greek article of clothing

9:11 am

Buttonman

Hurshy, help me out with this Italian word....ch4/4 PLEASE

9:11 am

hurshy

i took greek, but we didn't talk about the clothes

9:11 am

hurshy

will think

9:11 am

kalea

inge..........how big is your dog, and how much chocolate?

9:11 am

orionova

Button, it's CH+ two vowels.

9:11 am

hurshy

button, did you see annie's clue

9:12 am

Anniebrook

button, ch --state of utter ch***, leave off last letter

9:12 am

Vicuna

sort of rhymes with a film made of lots of drawn pictures...

9:12 am

inge

dog is 22 lbs and ate crumbs, up to one teaspoon perhaps

9:12 am

Vicuna

(That's the hi8 and 9, not the ch4!)

9:12 am

Charm

ci4/4 is the italian word, I think - It's c + 3 vowels, means hello or bye.

9:12 am

sparklygem

am missing a few 7s - ne7, the first po7 (I have 2 already) and sc7/36 - can anyone clue please?

9:12 am

hurshy

thanks vi - do you know, i almost tried that, just for monkeying, but thought, no, you can't just monkey so crazily

9:13 am

Anniebrook

working on the greek clothing

9:13 am

Vicuna

"It's so crazy... it just might work!"

9:13 am

kalea

then he should be ok..........would have to eat much more to be worrisome

9:14 am

inge

thanks Kalea

9:14 am

Haz1558

On the way out and saw your post, inge. No need to worry unless he ate vast quantities of cooking or dark chocolate.

9:15 am

Buttonman

OKEY maybe I am wrong, but I put the two ch 4/4 in the Lickety's list and the second ch4/4 is a ch** pet and the third ch is a word that rhymes with the Sh** word that means manure....there is a ch 4/4 before the ch*8 pet...according to the list

9:15 am

kalea

most welcome, inge...........lol, now i have to go finish making breakfast

9:15 am

hurshy

gem - the first po7 i have is a pl, you prob have, so i need one before that?

9:15 am

Buttonman

That one is driving me up a wall

9:16 am

hurshy

ne7 ne + cooking vessel + adj ending

9:16 am

Enomis65

anybody has the en 6?

9:16 am

Vicuna

You looking for pa7? mexican sugar, apparently, cooking vessil + Spanish for 8 with diff last vowel

9:16 am

Anniebrook

button......ch --state of utter ch***, LEAVE off the last letter, last time I give this clue, lol

9:16 am

Strider

the first po7 is toxic!

9:16 am

sparklygem

po7 - cooking vessel + vowel + start of Mr mouse or mr jaggers first name

9:17 am

Haz1558

Buttonman - ch4/6 the first, two vowels, leading to madness/craziness. Second ch4/6, again two vowels, making a word the same as a porcelain producing asian country minus the n.

9:17 am

hurshy

to do with rivers!!!!

9:17 am

sparklygem

yes! lol

9:17 am

Haz1558

The third ch4/6 - ch plus not he, nor she, but **.

9:17 am

hurshy

see, i remember something from greek!

9:18 am

sparklygem

got the mexican sugar thanks vic

9:18 am

sparklygem

9:19 am

Buttonman

9:20 am

sparklygem

thanks for the po7 clue strider! got it!

9:20 am

Anniebrook

buttonman, are you ignoring my clue at 9:16?

9:21 am

Haz1558

The very first ch4/6 - add two vowels. If you added an s you would have a word meaning a crisis/madness/craziness. LEAVE OFF THE S.

9:21 am

Haz1558

Or - ch plus the ending of the Chinese Chairman's name

9:21 am

hurshy

too... many... vowels...

9:22 am

Vicuna

Oh dear. Hear those voices crying, "For crying out loud, woman! Deal with us before the mail comes!!!!" That's my bills. I'll be back later.

9:25 am

Buttonman

9:25 am

Anniebrook

i thought you were ignoring me, *sigh*

9:25 am

Haz1558

I will go downtown pondering how else to clue that ch4/6 - c plus pig produce but replace the m with a vowel?

9:26 am

Haz1558

A vowel that is separated from m by one letter?

9:26 am

Buttonman

ANNIE and HURSH...got it and boy do i feel stupid

9:27 am

Haz1558

Yes! The light has dawned!

9:27 am

Buttonman

9:27 am

Haz1558

Bye for now!

9:28 am

Buttonman

9:28 am

hurshy

sparklygem

9:32 am

hurshy

miametro

9:33 am

hurshy

9:33 am

sparklygem

yes - there's two

9:33 am

hurshy

sigh again!

9:34 am

sparklygem

according to the placement in lickety's clues, it has to start with the sc4/5 I think!

9:34 am

sparklygem

the other one is sc6 nova sc**** then plural

9:35 am

hurshy

ah thanks

9:36 am

hurshy

start with sc4/5 you mean the one that that one you just clued starts with, right?

5:57 pm

FranMag

5:57 pm

Scrabbler

Wow, that is not what I expected to hear--I thought you were going to say that he was euthanized. So, his spirit was ready and he made it easier on you. You gave him a great life--9 yrs old.

5:57 pm

herinfernallady

6:02 pm

Scrabbler

Do you have a pet cemetery, Jacula? I have one in the woods next to my house--3 rabbits and many hamsters.

6:02 pm

Jacula

Hi speed. Thank you. I was going to put a good news icon on (but my scanner's broken) - Paul got his silver badge & certificate for having donated 25 pints of blood today. (Not all given today! LOL. Over about 6 years.) Great achievement, I think!:)

6:03 pm

herinfernallady

ok jac its a happy thought though. Brb i think someone has done something silly out front

6:04 pm

Jacula

Scrabbler, yes I have a pet cemetery in my little orchard at the end of the garden. A statue of St. Francis oversees it.

Red or white, medium, sweet or dry, Pam?

6:51 pm

cybernan

I'm serving a pinot gris late harvest ---- along with a little fois gras, of course.... anyone?

6:51 pm

Aloyisius

sc 7 + 8 : great sc** + beginning of an egg breakfast dish and the first vowel at the end, plural it too

6:52 pm

greengeeny

i never heard of pinot gris...only pinot grigio and pinot noir...what kind is that? White or red?

6:52 pm

phandmd

thnx

6:52 pm

Aloyisius

hey,I'm there, cybernan!

6:52 pm

Judi

Back for more punishment. Show of hands: Who hates vowels?? Anyone? Anyone?

6:52 pm

metaleather

right now Judi, I detest M's

6:53 pm

metaleather

and M's in conjunction with vowels so consider my hand raised

6:53 pm

cybernan

french equivalent of pint grigio -- late harvest = grapes picked after noble rot has set in and very sweet

6:53 pm

greengeeny

I have my hand raised!

6:53 pm

cliffopa

apparently i'm not very good at words beginning with vowels judi - i have very few!

6:53 pm

Judi

Okay. M's are bad too. I'm down to 69 left and simply must look at Lickety's clues. I'm weak and worthless.

6:53 pm

Jacula

Judi - I love vowels. They have such much potential when the consonants are rightly placed.:)

6:53 pm

pam

back

6:53 pm

pam

ay

6:53 pm

Aloyisius

hardest ones for me begin with vowels..

6:54 pm

Jacula

cyber - Not for me, thanks. I'm a very dry white wine girl myself. (The wine being dry, that it, not me!)

6:54 pm

greengeeny

OOh...sounds yummy cybernan...I am a fan of pinot grigio, well, and chardonnay, and pinot noir and merlot...well, just about any wine really

6:54 pm

pam

I was going for a chardonnay, Jac, but I have a low-level headache, so decided that I shouldn't ... sometimes alcohol will turn these into full-blown disasters.....

6:54 pm

Jacula

'such much' potential? I've only had 3 sips! ROFLOL.

6:55 pm

pam

what are you drinking, Jac?

6:55 pm

Jacula

pam - Chardonnary would be my choice (well, IS). Not a good idea if you have a migraine looming though, no. Go for water.

6:56 pm

cybernan

this is just short of being an ice wine --- made here in our valley when it doesn't get cold evough for the ice wine and perfect with fois gras

6:56 pm

greengeeny

I have a glass of Chateau St. Michelle Chardonnay as we speak...

6:56 pm

pam

I get these hormonal migraines and I chose not to use a patch this month (sorry if this is too much info) as the headaches seemed better. Only, they were better because I was using the patch, LOL

6:57 pm

pam

So, no more being my own doctor, I guess, LOLOLOL

6:57 pm

Jacula

'ChardonnaRy'? I'm getting worse!

6:57 pm

greengeeny

OOh, I have had an ice wine before, very expensive, and very syrupy for my taste...tried it at a local winery few months ago

6:57 pm

pam

I like the inexpensice Aussie chardonnays myself

6:58 pm

herinfernallady

some of our chardies are the best

6:58 pm

cybernan

unfortuneately Chardonnay gives me a headache also --- any oaked wine is an instant migraine for me --- love the taste too!!!

6:58 pm

greengeeny

Pam, that Chateau St. Michelle is only 13.00...the only chardonnay I know of from aussie is yellowtail, and I am not a fan

6:59 pm

herinfernallady

Brown Brothers is a good wine so is Wolf Blass

6:59 pm

Jacula

pam - Those are great. I'm on a French Chardonnary at present (a Piat d'Or). Not all Chardonnay's are oaked, cyber. I HATE oaked wine.

6:59 pm

pam

with me, it isn't a trigger but if i have a low-level headache, it will make it a full-blown

6:59 pm

metaleather

Fireworks at last thanks to FINALLY finding the incorrect reconciliation or making of amends

6:59 pm

Jacula

Why do I keep typing an 'r' in Chardonnay?? GRR!

6:59 pm

7:00 pm

greengeeny

OOh, I will have to look for those, and try them out...always looking for a new wine to try

7:00 pm

cybernan

We have one wine maker that doesn't use oak barrels, but his chardonnay is very dry. We like to support the Okanagan wine industry, so tend to buy local.

7:00 pm

metaleather

can I help anyone with clues before I slip away into the night like the proverbial nomad?

7:00 pm

Judi

Ditto on the hormonal migraines. Although, I find mine are less intense now that I'm not taking my cholesterol medicine.

7:00 pm

Jacula

South African wines are nice, but often have a very high percentage. I prefer not to go about 11.5 - 12%.

7:00 pm

cliffopa

7:00 pm

I was just thinking ( in know--dangerous pursuit) how supportive and wonderful babbleland is! I mean, where else can one sign in and discuss a hideous breakup, loss, or headache and get meaningful support, advice, and a comfortable shoulder?

7:31 pm

Jacula

pam - not many sites. There is one other I know of, and even the resident troll controlled himself when I went on there when my Dad had just died. It seems a strange thing to do - go on the internet - when you've just had a major upset, but, sometimes, you can't think what else to do.

7:31 pm

anike

se 6/18, sn 5/12, so 6/18 and sp 5/12

7:32 pm

FranMag

to6/21 sounds like a phonetic spelling of a word that means poison, to + consonant + one of the 7 deadly ***s

I agree, it's what I use after I've just typed what I can see. Perhaps that's why it takes me sooo long. I notice some of you know right away that there are mo7s and 8s but lidkety's not up yet. Is that just experience???

11:54 pm

FranMag

by the way jac, your roses are very nice.

What's www.morewords jillibus? Does that give clues?

11:55 pm

jillibus

the safest thing is to type them into Lickety because you can tick off the wrong one if there are several similar, like 4 ab4/4's in a row

11:55 pm

FranMag
